More movie posters. I've always loved Romero's Dead series and can't wait to finish up designs for the first 3 films (I'm not going to bother with Land, Diary or Survival).
Not much else to add here, really.
They're coming to get you, Bah-baraaaah...

I'm growing tired of this style of poster design but I have to say this is one of the best ones I've seen recently. It has a great idea, good use of color and negative space, and a really nice type layout. I even like the amount of distress you use. My only quibble is the spacing of your lettering at the bottom - you have a nice space below and above the "Starring" area, But the 2 lines seem very tight to the left and right side of your design. I feel they should have more breathing space.
Kudos for going above and beyond the norm here. It's really good work!
I think you're right about the spacing issue and I kind of agree with you about these fan made movie posters (I've seen a lot of them but only really like a small handful). The whole reason behind these posters was because I was set to have a table at a local horrorfest but realized I didn't have much horror stuff to sell. Making these posters was a quick way to get a decent sized inventory in time for the show. People really seemed to like them and they're fun to put together so I continued to do more. It was my first attempt at trying any kind of graphic design type stuff so I was figuring it all out as I was making them. This spacing issue is just one of those rookie mistakes that I never noticed so thanks a lot for bringing it to my attention!
By the way--I was checking through your gallery and really liked that Steambot Frankenstein. Is that the Snug Harbor in Charlotte, NC? I can't imagine there'd be two places with the same name. I recognized it because a pal of mine did a show flyer/comic cover for a book that was given out at that place a few years ago. Just passing that info along, I guess.
